Shadow.gg Expands into Collegiate Scene with Battlefy Partnership

The latest expansion of DOJO Madness’ esports analytics tool, Shadow.gg, will target the collegiate League of Legends scene, thanks to a new partnership with Battlefy.

Shadow will gain access to match data from the College League of Legendsseries, and a version of the platform will be made available to universities.

Shadow will now gain access to match data from Riot Games’ College League of Legends series, and a collegiate version of the platform will be made available to participating universities. The college version of the platform will use a similar subscription model as the version offered to pro teams, but comes with a more modest price.

“Battlefy and Riot Games have shown how deeply committed they are to the long-term future of collegiate esports, and we’re thrilled to be able to support that vision by offering collegiate teams access to our professional-grade tools,” says DOJO’s head of Shadow initiatives, Tim Sevenhuysen.

Riot Games dropped its previous relationship with Collegiate Starleague (CSL) in favor of Battlefy in December 2017. The publisher has said previously it has no current plans to monetize the LOL college landscape through sponsorships or media rights deals.

Full Disclosure: DOJO Madness CEO and co-founder Jens Hilgers is a partner at BITKRAFT Esports Ventures. BITKRAFT Esports Ventures is an investor in Esports Business Solutions UG, the company behind The Esports Observer.
